Get Sephora’s best-selling lip gloss
Sephora is owned by LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vouiton, a leader in luxury goods, including fashion, wine and spirits, beauty and cosmetics and select retailers. Among LVMH’s select retailers, Sephora has the largest footprint in North America. Sephora is a one-stop shop for the biggest names in beauty, including a large selection of lip gloss that you can buy online or through the store’s app.
Once used as a glossy finish for lipstick, lip gloss is now often the lip covering of choice. People wear it alone or to enhance lipstick. You can get gloss in ultra shiny, pigmented, matte and even glittery finishes. Some lip glosses create the illusion of fuller lips, while others feel like lip treatments that reduce fine lines and the signs of aging. Whatever your lip gloss needs, you’ll find a solution at lip Sephora.
Best of the best most popular lip gloss on Sephora
Fenty Beauty By Rhianna Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizer: available at Sephora.
Our take: This high-shine gloss by Fenty Beauty complements any skin tone. The shea butter leaves lips smooth and moist. It has a peach-vanilla scent that may have you licking your lips.
What we like: The lip gloss is vegan and cruelty free. It’s available in six colors, including nude, which means this can double as a lip balm.
What we dislike: Some people love the peach-vanilla scent. However, many users found it too strong. Some people prefer lip gloss without a scent.

What we like: The gel is smooth and not too tacky. This gloss is long lasting and the color provides good coverage.
What we dislike: The wand tip is tiny and may not grab as much gloss all at once.

Tower 28 Beauty ShineOn Jelly Lip Gloss: available at Sephora.
Our take: Tower 28 Beauty ShineOne Jelly lip gloss provides so much moisture that it can double as a lip conditioner or treatment. It’s non-sticky and glides on like liquid silk.
What we like: The apricot kernel, raspberry seed and rosehip oils give this gloss a soothing feel that lasts throughout the day. ShineOn is sheer and an excellent choice for people prone to peeling or chapped lips.
What we dislike: This gloss has a limited color selection. If you’re looking for a ton of color, this is not the lip gloss for you.

Our take: Tom Ford Gloss Luxe Lip Gloss is the gloss for those who love deep color in their gloss and you don’t mind splurging.
What we like: It’s light and infused with avocado and olive oils, which provide a naturally moist-looking finish.
What we dislike: Tom Ford Gloss Luxe Lip cost $58, which is expensive even for designer lipstick.
Best of the best most popular lip gloss on Sephora for plumping
If applied a certain way, any lip gloss can create the illusion of fuller lips. However, plumping lip gloss contains ingredients that make your lips larger, if only temporarily. Similar to how your lips may swell when you eat spicy foods, when you apply plumping lip gloss, the skin reacts, causing noticeably fuller lips.
Buxom Full-on Plumping Lip Polish Gloss: available at Sephora.
Our take: Buxom Full-on Plumping Lip Polish gloss uses a peptide complex to give lips a fuller appearance. It’s a plumper with shine and ample hydration.
What we like: It contains vitamins A and E to soothe lips after the initial tingling.
What we dislike: It’s quite sticky and some customers claim to see zero plumping effect.

Sephora Collection Outrageous Plumping Lip Gloss: available at Sephora.
Our take: This Sephora Collection plumping lip gloss provides a beautiful sheen to bare or lipstick-covered lips. The high shine creates a youthful appearance.
What we like: Peppermint, sunflower seed and ginger root oils give this gloss a dewy finish. This gloss cost a third of the price of some designer plumpers.
What we dislike: It is super sticky and if used to top a matte lipstick, may create a clumping effect.
Most popular lip gloss on Sephora for plumping honorable mention
Too Faced Lip Injection Maximum Plump : available at Sephora.
Our take: This Too Faced lip gloss aims to give your lips that just-injected fullness sans cosmetic surgeon. This gloss contains capsicum frutescens resin, an ingredient derived from chili peppers, which increases blood flow to the skin resulting in a plump pink lip.
What we like: Within minutes of application, your lips will plump up. Ingredients in the lip gloss also turn your lips a natural, deeper shade of pink.
What we dislike: Most lip gloss plumpers tingle. Too Faced Lip Injection Maximum Plump feels like a mild burning sensation. Also, Too Faced makes two other lip plumpers that produce nearly identical results but cost less.

Lip gloss can sometimes cost as much as lipstick. However, Sephora carries several options for under $10.
Sephora Collection Colorful Lip Gloss Balm : available at Sephora.
Our take: This is a no-frills no-nonsense lip gloss that gets the job done. It moisturizes, provides sheen and a little color.
What we like: It’s super hydrating and creamy, almost like a lip balm with color.
What we dislike: It’s supersheer and depending on your preference, this may seem more like a pricey lip balm than an affordable gloss.

Sephora Collection Colorful Lip Gloss Balm Super Fruits: available at Sephora.
Our take: You get all the benefits of the Sephora Collection Colorful Lip Gloss Balm with an extra fruity bonus. This lip gloss comes in fun flavors like wild watermelon, passionate pomegranate and tangy tangerine.
What we like: The scents smell lip-licking delicious but aren’t so strong that you’re overwhelmed. The flavors correspond with the lip colors, the passionate pomegranate has a deep berry tone and the tangy tangerine is orange.
What we dislike: These flavors don’t taste anything close to how they smell.
